Had to learn his 12 bar chord progression @ 10:33. Pretty nifty!
How he explains while playing through the whole thing, is amazing to me.

His expression is like... will there be anything else?Frank's facial expressions have always been killer, he totally feels the music - luv it!!
Absolutely! He definitely earned those Lead Chops. After a killer day at school I would see him (or hear him in the room, as I was walking down the hallway) in one of the performance rooms, working on his lead chops and techniques. Sometimes incorporating what we had learned that day... and that he was using a drum machine placed on a stool.Dude is the Real Deal
I read an interview with Miles Davis once where he said 'don't practice - play!'. I suppose that's OK if you're a genius but I reckon even he must have started out learning his scales. Also I reckon he was a bit like Billy Gibbons in that it doesn't serve you well to rely too heavily on a single word he says.
Im not great lead player but what i usually do js get the backing tracks and jam on it and don go for what you know try find way without using specific scales. Just find notes and try to make it work.Hi All, I'm looking for suggestions to improve my lead playing. How do you guys go about besides scales and exercises. Would you recommend paying an instructor, something like yousician (not doing yousician), watching youtube specific videos for certain technique ie sweep picking, fret board tapping etc. or a combination of the above? I've been playing for about 15 years now but looking to take my playing to the next level. Mainly interested in 80s shred, slash/gilmourish leads, and some blues licks.
Thanks for your suggestions!
